Watts Water Technologies has paid out, on average, around 20.31% of recent net profits as dividends.

In Watts Water Technologies's case, that would currently equate to about 1.72 per share.
While Watts Water Technologies's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that the company is investing more in its future growth.
Watts Water Technologies's most recent dividend payout was on 12 June 2025. To be eligible for the latest dividend you would need to have been a shareholder at 29 May 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
